A flash flood watch is in effect for nearly all of Colorado on Tuesday as this week's weather continues to pack a punch.

"Monsoon moisture combined with a moist easterly upslope flow will produce widespread showers and thunderstorms this afternoon into Wednesday," the National Weather Service said. "Rainfall amounts through Wednesday will range from one to two inches with up to three inches possible. If a prolonged period of heavier rainfall develops later tonight into Wednesday morning, this could lead to even higher rainfall amounts in some areas."

The watch is in effect from early Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday morning.

Monday saw severe weather in the Denver area as several funnel clouds were spotted within the city limits, in Aurora and near Denver International Airport. Minor damage associated with the tornadic activity was reported.

Southern Colorado, meanwhile, which was expected to take the brunt of Monday's weather system, again was spared from any major flooding or thunderstorm events.

This is a developing story that will be updated throughout the day as weather conditions change statewide.
